Thanks for your post. After doing the changes and changing the permission on the folder, it worked for me…

Its really hard to fix, but what if I don’t want to change the folder to uploads, I mean the default way wordpress saves the files in separate folders which don’t make too much of mess and images of each month are easily managed in a good way.

Also some suggestions say to change permissions to 777 which is not good idea as this incorporates the security hole to your site. Files with 777 can be easily accessed/changed by any user at that shared server.

Wow, thank you. My contents were writable, everything was as should be and suddenly I couldn't upload pics anymore. I tried this thinking "I won't be so lucky"... but it worked! Veronica´s lastest post..Getting Health Insurance in NC & the U.S.

I’m glad it work for you as this little trick works on a few privileged ones only and I could understand how frustrating it was going back and forth the search engines for the answer.

It was more like an accidental “trial and error” sort of thing so it isn’t the official fix but who cares, it works for both of us, doesn’t it?

Thank you very much!!!

I have just spent the last 4 hours googling the web to find an answer. I had my blog on a hosted server and just got my own VPS. After a fresh install of Wordpress 2.6.2, I couldn’t import posts, upload images, etc.. I saw quite a few people having the same problem and the common answer was “change your file permissions”. That didn’t work for me either. I was about to do a clean WP install…

…And then I found your post.

I found I checked that box in my setup. Unchecking took everything back to normal.

Again…thank you!!!!!!

Ah! Sweet perfection. Thank you so much for posting this! :-) Worked like a charm. I needed to change the permissions when transferring a http://www.wordpress.com blog to a http://www.wordpress.org blog and encountered what was essentially the same problem. Thank you once again. You’ve inspired me to write a post detailing the solution to my problem and your site is going to be the first thing I credit!
